How utterly Pavlovian

Over the past couple of weeks I have heard several news stories on NPR that were datelined "Istanbul." And I simply do not believe that it's my fault that my brain automatically fills in "(not Constantinople)." No, in this instance, the fault, dear Brutus, lies in the stars, not in ourselves. Or, at least in a couple of guys named John.

Heh heh. I loved that song when I was... uh, not too much younger than I am now. :)

Hmm. Pavlov. There's a name that rings a bell.
